Itinerario
After pickup, travel about 90 minutes from Baku to Beshbarmag Mountain in the Siyazan District. Known as “Five Fingers” for its unique rock formations, this 382-meter peak is a prominent pilgrimage and viewpoint along the main northern highway. Visit the small shrine area linked to ancient spiritual traditions and local legends, including stories connected to Noah’s Ark. Enjoy a short, manageable ascent and panoramic views over the Caspian coast and Siyazan lowlands, with guided historical and natural explanations during a 60-minute visit.
The tour continues to the Candy Cane Mountains, located in the Khizi District, reached by a 50-minute drive from Beshbarmag. Positioned near the town of Khizi along the Baku-Quba highway, this geological formation is known for its vivid red, pink, white and orange mineral bands. These pigment variations are produced through long-term oxidation processes affecting iron-rich sediments. The striped patterns intensify under low-angle sunlight and represent a visually distinct example of Azerbaijan’s geological diversity. The color bands result from mineral weathering rather than stratified sediment layering, giving the hills their signature painted appearance. Visitors spend about 60 minutes walking around the area with guidance explaining the geological processes and visual characteristics. The tour concludes after the visit to the Candy Cane Mountains. The return transfer to Baku takes 80 minutes, ending with drop-off at the hotel or selected meeting point.

About Baku
Baku is Azerbaijan's capital on the Caspian Sea, where a walled medieval old town sits beside oil-era mansions and glass towers shaped like flames.
The walled Old City, Icherisheher, is a UNESCO-listed maze of lanes with the Maiden Tower and the Palace of the Shirvanshahs, both medieval. Beyond the walls, grand mansions from the oil boom of the late nineteenth century line the streets, and a long boulevard runs beside the Caspian. The three Flame Towers glow on the skyline, and Zaha Hadid's curving Heydar Aliyev Centre is a landmark of modern architecture.
Top-ranked sights in Baku: Bibi-Heybat Mosque (Bibiheybet Mescidi), Yanar Dag, Baku Old City (Icherisheher).
